I am a horrible diarist

Why is it that currently I find it very difficult to sit here and write entries? Where are the days where there would be 3 to 10 entries in one day from me? Now I go days with out writing!

Also I am horrible about not noting people. I am trying to work on that. It is so easy for me to just hit that back button after reading. It is a bad habit I am going to try to break. I also feel so bad about not noting those who note me. I am going to try to work on that too.

Ok just a few tidbits for you to today.

I had a wonderful lunch with Kim (Unexpected Blessings) and I ate tons of things that were not on my diet! But you know what? You have to splurge every once in a while. 🙂 I am hoping that we can get together one day on a weekend. I would say we could get together this weekend but she has out-of-town company and I don’t really want to intrude… heh heh. I do think Autumn and I need to visit so the kids can play and so I see your new apartment and maybe take a dip in your pool! *BIG GRIN*

Yesterday Autumn and I were going to get in the pool I bought, just a family size wading pool thingee. But even after the guys put bleach in to kill the algae two days before – it was still really icky – so I took a bucket and filled it up with water and put some toys in it and let her play in the bucket. No, she was not sitting in the bucket – she was outside the bucket playing in the water that was IN the bucket. Did that make sense? I so wanted to get pictures but I was not going to leave her outside whilst I ran in to find the camera. So you all will have to wait until the next time I have her play in it. It may be tomorrow since I have to fill her pool back up and the water will be too cold for her to play in the pool.

One of my long time friends, Mel, who I play Star Wars Galaxies with (also played The Sims Online with) sent us a gift certificate for Autumn’s birthday. I finally picked out some things for her and part of the order arrived today. Autumn got a spring float for use in pools & a singing Funshine Bear that arrived today. The second part of the order was just shipped out today and she should have it around the first of the month. We are getting her a toddler swing for outside. WOOT! I think Kal is more excited about the swing than any of us!

Speaking of Kal, I am going to have a pretty quiet weekend this week. He is headed to Ohio with E, the guy who is staying with us, to help him bring down more of his stuff. They are leaving on Friday afternoon and will be back early on Monday morning. I won’t know what to do with myself! I do know that on Saturday afternoon my mom & dad are taking me to a cook out for her work. Hey, she is paying for it and so it is a free meal for me. LOL

Night time I will probably just watch some DVDs or something. I should work on a website that needs some photos added to it and work on creating some more items for my online store. If any of you decide to start your own store – please say you were referred by me. I get points and bonuses for referrals. And I will let you know when I have some more items up. If you all have any suggestions for items or if you want custom orders let me know. I will be happy to take any of your photos and edit them and create custom content for you.

I also need to work on my own personal website. Any of you who had access to my online galleries – do you want access still? I had a hack and had to redo all my databases – your albums are there but I do not have any users but myself at the moment.

I have discovered Diet Coke with Splenda. I think I am finally happy with Diet Coke. I hated regular Diet Coke. It tastes salty to me. I was drinking anywhere from 2 to 6 regular Cokes a day. YIKES. Now I only drink regular Coke if I am at a restaurant – like today – but even then I usually choose unsweet tea. And speaking of tea – I also found these things by 4C called Tea to Go. Crystal Light makes them too… but it is these little packets of tea mix that you mix right in the bottle of water – 16.9 oz bottle – I had 20 oz bottles and had to drink some water out first or they were pretty weak. MMMM tasty!

**TMI – talk about hemorrhoids ahead**
I know I told you about my official weight loss from visiting the doc – but did I tell you what he said about my ‘roids? He did an external exam and said there were about 4 protruding and he did not know what was going on inside. But he gave me some suppositories and said if they are not better in a couple of weeks – he wants me to make an appointment with a proctologist. He said the last he knew – how they get rid of them is by putting rubber bands around them and they dry up and fall off! LOL reminded me of when I lived in Northern Michigan and we had Goats. That is how you castrate the baby goats. I told him that and he said “Well, I don’t know anything about goats.” LOL too funny.
**End TMI**

Hmmmmmm – Not much else going on at Casa de O’ta. I guess it is time for me to check email and then check out my faves one last time then try to get some sleep. Busy day tomorrow too….

Hasta Pasta!

Not bad for what was going to be a short entry!
